Licensed to Arne Henden
05:39:06 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:39:06 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:39:06   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:39:06 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:39:07 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:39:07 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:39:07 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:39:08 Dome is MaxDome
05:39:08 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:39:08 Imager is ASCOM
05:39:08 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:39:08 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230327@053515 UTC
05:39:08 Imager readout modes:
05:39:08   0 is Fast
05:39:08   1 is Normal
05:39:08 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:39:08 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:39:08 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:39:08 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:39:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:39:08 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:39:08 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:39:08 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:39:08 ==== Starting target IR_Com ====
05:39:08 ACPS Observation IR_Com(1 of 1)
05:39:08   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan IR_Com)
05:39:08   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:39:08 Pointing updates are enabled
05:39:08 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:39:08   Start slew to IR_Com...
05:39:09   (wait for slew to complete)
05:40:00   (slew complete)
05:40:00     [flip check:  Tn=600s HAc=-6609s GW=T HAz=-6009s DWz=T WF=no]
05:40:00   Updating pointing...
05:40:00   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
05:40:00   (using Fast readout mode)
05:40:00   (starting exposure)
05:40:15   (exposure complete)
05:40:17   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
05:40:18   Image finished
05:40:18   Plate-solve pointing image.
05:40:19   257 image stars found
05:40:19   151 catalog stars found
05:40:20   Solved! 50 stars matched.
05:40:20   Average residual is 0.36 arcsec.
05:40:20   Pointing error is 1.381 arcmin @ angle 82.86
05:40:20   True focal length is 3469.2 mm.
05:40:20   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
05:40:20   True image center (J2000): 12h 39m 38.0s   21° 08' 16.70"
05:40:20   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
05:40:20   [sync] pointing model updated
05:40:20   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
05:40:20   Target is now centered.
05:40:20   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:40:20   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
05:40:20   Switching from SR to R filter for imaging
05:40:20   Focus change of 270 steps required
05:40:24   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
05:40:39   (guide star SNR=3.2 X=964 Y=862)
05:40:40   (first exposure estimate 4.68 sec)
05:40:48   (guide star SNR=2.9 X=958 Y=857)
05:40:48   (final exposure for guiding 4.77 sec)
05:40:56 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:40:57 **Guider unexpectedly stopped while waiting for measurement
05:40:58   (take guider image at initial interval 4.77 sec)
05:41:06   (guide star SNR=3.5 X=940 Y=843)
05:41:06   (first exposure estimate 4.08 sec)

05:41:14   (final exposure for guiding 4.12 sec)
05:41:22   (guide star SNR=2.8 X=938 Y=842)
05:44:53   (take guider image at initial interval 4.12 sec)
05:45:01 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
05:45:14 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
05:45:15 **Autoguiding failed.
